Characters can sometimes hate a certain day of the week, due to bad luck and misfortune that seem to only happen to them on that day. When they start hating it, they often start dreading the coming day on the day before.
 
As suggested by the trope name, Monday is one of, if not ''the most'' hated-on days, perhaps because it's the day that many people go back to work/school after the weekend.
